Great location and clean, practical property. We loved our time here. Gail was great to work with to help us with small things with our stay and was easy to get a hold of. Cant wait to come back. The condo had a pack and play style portable crib, which we used instead of bringing our own. This was super helpful for us.

The Perfect Family Beach Side Condo

The suite has recently been updated. The huge kitchen counter was perfect for the kiddos to have a quick lunch and race back to the beach. We loved the ground unit, and the grassy area in front of the lanai felt like and extension to our area. The fact that the beach was across the street was perfect for everyone. We loved the evening grilling with the neighbours at the amazing communal grilling station. The unit had all the beach chairs, boogie boards, umbrellas and snorkel gear you could ask for. Everything about this suite was thought out. We can't wait to book for next year! Gail has a great condo, and working with her was a pleasure.

Beautiful, super clean condo with everything we could have wanted. It has a well stocked kitchen with everything we needed for us to cook & BBQ.

We had a great time staying at Gail's place. It was beautifully decorated, clean and in a great location in Keihi. This was our 4th trip to Maui and probably our most favorite stay. For any questions we had, Gail was quick to respond. Waking up to a beach view could not have been more enchanting. Thank you Gail for making this a memorable family vacation!

Look elsewhere

It pains me to leave this review, but it is what I would hope to hear before traveling to Hawaii and staying at this property. First off the property has been completely updated. It looks beautiful and as pictured. With that being said, there are some things that are left out here from the listing. no code was ever left or communicated to me by Gail for the pool. I had to receive that from a generous neighbor. Also was never explained that I had a check a car in which I only realized after receiving a warning notice. Unfortunately, it seems that these are investment properties with very little thought to the actual people that rent them. The property is gorgeous but unfortunately has a roach problem. I understand roaches are common place in Hawaii but not to the point where they’re crawling on you in your sleep. I communicated this to the owner so she would at least have the opportunity to make corrections. All I received was a phone number and ask for a phone call to explain further. After I did explain further, there was no communication back. I see that there’s two properties owned by this party so I believe this is more or less an investment opportunity not really caring about the occupants in question. Again, I really prefer not to leave a review like that. I try to be proactive and communicate with the owner but that just didn’t seem to be an option again looks are beautiful but heavy roach problem.

Great location & amenities

The property was just as pictured - in a great location and had everything we needed to be comfortable. Took off one star as security did not meet our expectations. The patio door was unlocked when we arrived which made us uncomfortable, and then a mix up with the property manager led to another customer entering our property while we were sleeping. This was unfortunate as it put a negative end on an otherwise great stay.

The perfect Maui getaway

This property is spot on with the listing. Gail was a fantastic host and very responsive, she was also easily accommodating given we had itinerary changes due to airline delays. What can I say, everything we felt we needed to really make the most of our stay, we already had in the unit. I cooked at least one meal per day, the kitchen was fully stocked with basic herbs/ spices and cookware and had anything I could’ve asked for. Extra pillows, towels and bedding with lots of storage space in the bedroom. The hand steamer for clothes was a really nice surprise, as we had a couple of fancy dinners while there and it made our suitcase wrinkles quickly disappear! Google account linked to the “Hi Google” smart device was nice for atmosphere music, and smart tvs allowed you to input your own accounts for prime, Netflix, YouTube, etc. The main tv is huge and was great, though we had problems connecting to the bedroom tv due to network latency and it just seemed to be an older tv. Swapping that out with a more modern unit or Apple TV would definitely be an easy investment for a future upgrade, but was not a big deal. The A/c unit in the bedroom worked well, a bit loud but pretty standard. Both doors also had screens, with fans in the living room and bedroom keeping the air circulating nicely. Washer/dryer onsite was great and worked fine. The patio looked out over the Western volcano in the distance, was steps away from the pool and literally a 1 minute walk to Kamaole park, where dozens of people would gather every night to enjoy the sunset. Close to many local beaches, the outdoor storage area had beach chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear, hard and soft coolers, and other gear. I ended up using most of it, super handy to bring a packed lunch on a days excursion, or bring drinks and ice to the beach. Don’t forget to bring your own shade! Hale Kamaole is a nice looking neighborhood and parking was never an issue. The unit is on the first floor and only second unit in from the street, so very easy to get in/out of. A handful of restaurants and shops are less than half mile walk up the road for easy access, and only a 5 minute drive into Wailea. Couldn’t recommend Gail’s place more, the location, amenities and closeness to our own group activities played a big part of our 8 night Maui adventure… which was epic! We would definitely rent here again - 5 stars across the board! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Fabulous Condo!

Condo was perfect. This unit was super clean, updated, nicely decorated with so many lovely touches to provide a comfortable stay. The view from lanai was unobstructed to beach and the proximity to grassy area for sunsets and beach for snorkeling was perfect. The condo was well equipped with many kitchen, bathroom, outdoor amenties. The bed was very comfortable and even though the unit only had AC in bedroom, the efficient ceiling fan in living room kept room comfortable for us. The grounds were beautifully kept, the pool and BBQ amenities were great and our family enjoyed the use of the pavillion one evening for a group event. Property manager was very helpful and friendly. Owner of unit was friendly and very easy to connect when needed. My husband and I had such a relaxing visit we can't wait to come back again to this oasis in Maui. Mahalo Gail.
